So I splurged and bought the new Michelins!!
245 35 19s and 275 30 19s
I?m pretty stoked as I pulled the trigger after reading this post from the M5 board!!

Crazy review right?!
Well?upon a little test drive...it's ALL FRIKIN TRUE!!
I honestly have nothing more to say, other than I couldn't shake her loose to the point where if I dove into a turn harder I'd seriously risk dislocating my spinal chord!! Unreal grip fellas - unreal.
Anyway, decided to do that when I had my car at EuroRev having my rims powdercoated. I went with gloss black lips and with grey/charcoal centers.
Definitely a change to my all black look that's for sure!
They do go with my Black/CF Theme, but I think it makes my wheels look obviosuly smaller - so not sure if I'll keep them
Here are pics of the wheels and I will be reviewing the tires again periodically as I put miles on them.
Let's hear it guys - what ya think!?

Thanks tonymac - I def thought about the Hankooks and the Continental DWs, as well. Can't go wrong with either of those tires

Also, the rims are def growing on me - it was just a shock at first!
The tires are just frikin awesome - even the ride is smoother and the steering also feels more precise!!
